The yellow colour and soothing mushiness of moong dal are a pleasant contrast to the vibrant orange colour and snappy juiciness of carrots, making this Healthy Lentil Soup a very appealing entrée.

Not only is it tasty, this sumptuous soup is also beneficial in keeping blood pressure under control, thanks to the high potassium content of moong dal. This treat also comes at a lower calorie count, as we have omitted cream and used a little cornflour instead to thicken the soup.
